| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of King Idris I, depicted wearing a traditional Libyan kufiya headdress with trailing cloth, his draped bust truncated at the lower field. The portrait, modelled in high relief by engraver Paul Vincze, conveys a dignified and naturalistic likeness. Arabic legends flank the effigy on both sides of the field, with the engraver's initials P.V. incuse at the lower truncation. The design is enclosed by a finely beaded border. |
